Discovering the Developmental Trajectory of Lexical Stress Production

Grant number: DP130101900 | Funding period: 2013 - 2016

Completed

Abstract

In English words some syllables are more strongly stressed than others. Most children will learn to emphasise these syllables appropriately but some will not. This project will help to understand the normal development of this vital aspect of speech production and allow more effective assistance to those who experience difficulties.
